What would you like exactly for the check? Just to make sure platforms
that should have LLC return a value > 1?

As for testing the other tools, I personally want no involvement with
intel_reg_dumper, since I feel maintaining it is a losing effort and
would rather see effort put into quick_dump. I'll write tests for
reg_read/reg_write though.

When I see review and signs of those getting merged, I'll gladly do
that. For simple, potentially very useful patches, they're sitting
around doing nothing for an awfully long time. And, I can no longer
easily test them. So poop.
